The Historiography of Late Republican Civil War: Historiography of Rome and Its Empire, cartea 5

Carsten Hjort Lange, Frederik Juliaan Vervaet
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 aug 2019
The Historiography of Late Republican Civil War is part of a burgeoning new trend that focuses on the great impact of stasis and civil war on Roman society. This volume specifically concentrates on the Late Republic, a transformative period marked by social and political violence, stasis, factional strife, and civil war. Its constitutive chapters closely study developments and discussions concerning the concept of civil war in the late republican and early imperial historiography of the late Republic, from L. Cornelius Sulla Felix to the Severan dynasty.

Recenzii

"The volume is a welcome addition to numerous recent studies on the civil wars of the late Republic – which continues to be an area of productive research – focusing as it does on the integral importance of historiography and reflecting on the creation of the narratives we have available. (...)As full translations have been provided throughout, the volume is highly accessible. The editors have put together a substantial contribution to the ongoing work on Late Republican civil war, which perhaps most strikingly draws out, through its focus on historiography and individual authors, the ongoing fascination and influence of those wars for authors of subsequent periods of Rome’s history." Hannah Cornwell in Acta Classica LXIV (2021)

"The editors bring together experts on ancient Roman historians in an attempt to define and understand these Roman historians’ concepts of civil war. Ultimately, this volume demonstrates that there is not one single narrative but multiple narratives on the impact of civil war" M. A. Byron, CHOICEconnect, 2020.57.06

"Overall, this is a valuable volume that contributes a number of illuminating case studies tocontemporary discussions about how the memory and representation of civil war were forged,contested and adapted. [...] It is when these contributions are in dialogue with each other (directly or indirectly) that thisvolume most shines [..] particularly for the reader who takes the time to explore the full collection, this volume successfully illustrates theuid nature of the memory of late republican civil war and the diverse ways in which historiographical writing shaped (and was shaped) by it over the centuries." Jennifer Gerrish, Journal of Roman Studies, 111, 304-5.
